Ruppe rewarded for job well done

Rockwood City Recorder Becky Ruppe got a bump in pay from a grateful Rockwood City Council that feels she has gone beyond the call of duty to get the city’s finances improved.

Rockwood City Council unanimously approved a $5,000-increase in pay that officials said would not require adjustments to the budget.

Councilman Bill Thompson gave Ruppe the biggest thump on the back with his praise for her work.

“Since February, there has been a lot of things happen around here, and I think they have been good things,” Thompson said.
